A life with Words by Darien A (TX)
To live a life of words, Of essay, prose, or rhyme, Soaring like the birds, To make a friend of time. No trains, cars, or planes, To hateful nine to fives, No youth flushed down the drain, Only life spent alive. This will be my dream, Only this shall I pursue, To be more than I seem, And ne'er more be you.
